LITHIUM BATTERY SYSTEM AND OVERHEAD WORKING TRUCK
A lithium battery system comprising a battery and a feedback current control apparatus having a first current capture device that comprises: a first feedback current capture module for capturing feedback current; a first switch module for conducting or unidirectionally cutting off a main circuit; and a control module for receiving a first voltage of one end of a driver on the main circuit, a second voltage of one end of the battery, and the temperature of the battery. When a difference between the first and second voltage is greater than a preset voltage and the temperature of the battery is less than or equal to a preset temperature, the first switch module is controlled to unidirectionally cut off the main circuit to capture feedback current by the first feedback current capture module on a first current capture circuit, greatly reducing the probability of lithium precipitation and risk of thermal runaway.
